Fear
Fear bumped past me in the street
Whispered my life's nameless defeat
Left me on my knees
Telling me I'm never gonna please
Terror crept into my room late last night
I watched paralyzed, too weak to give a fight
It bound me to my nightmares
Made me remember all my errors
Fear locked me away in the dark
Took a knife to my skin
Left countless jagged marks
For every single damned sin
I cried out for help
Fear muffled my screams
Left me in hellish dreams
Abandoned me to myself
Fear hid my soul in solitude
In a cage with bars so crude
In such wretched isolation
Whispered suicidal deliberations
I was given a drug of horror
I craved it so, my own soul tore
Forced to love my bitter misery
Fear gagged me, kept silent my history
Terror abandoned me to nothingness
Swore I would always be meaningless
Turned his back on me and left
Stuck in a cruel, mocking cleft
One day I dragged along
Forced to pretend I was strong
Held at gunpoint by a demon
I was Fear's play toy, just for fun
